There is always a time crunch when the days dwindle down to a precious few (as the old song goes) and time nears for loading up and heading for the desert. This Saturday the day began with a team discussion of what remains to be done, when to do it, and how. The logistics are really challenging when it comes to loading the trailers, assigning drivers, and planning how to get everything down to our desert test site and set up for the runs.

Special guest today, Tristian!

Trish brought her grandson to the shop today, a very bright and interested visitor. He enjoyed some cockpit time.

About

The North American Eagle project began as nothing more than an idea. That idea was to take a jet fighter, and turn it into the fastest racing machine in history. Together, Ed Shadle and Keith Zanghi founded a project with a goal to go supersonic, and break the World Land Speed Record of 763 MPH. Along the way, countless people have joined together to push the boundaries of speed, to see just how fast this car can go.
